Thankyou ITrev 20 Apr 2010 3:34:05pm comment - [ "Aly argues that the meaning of right and left wing, which stem from the French Revolution (monarchy versus liberty, equality and fraternity), no longer make sense. To illustrate he asks a series of questions about particular issues".] I can't quite get on head around that one also. Aly's argument about his declaration as you have pointed out..I tend to agree with you i.e. for all it's worth.

2) They serve the interests of the very wealthy as in the right wing. Perhaps the wealthiest people be it a Poli or not, basically what we refer to as the 'upper class' which a very well documented showing the facts and figures between the rich and poor within the Australian population. In fact, records do show that the gap between the rich and the poor has become wider now than the post war years, the boom time in our country Australia. The division of wealth held within the Australian society can be an argument to nut out and never come to an end. In the post-war years if you have a lawn mover, a fridge, a T.V and hey, gosh if you had a car you deemed yourself to be rich! You considered the poor people of the world and draw your conclusion to that thought. That was not a true reflection at all because 98% of our population were on the borderline or just merely over or under it. O.K having had said that. Today it is thought of differently mainly because we are in a commodities era and people think they have everything at their fingertips. Again we are some the poor people living in a third world country (plus the indigenous Australians) and we draw our conclusion on that basis. This way of thought is not a true refection of wealth. It is the Australian people have been told (by media etc) by the wealthiest the higher-ups and so on. The law of “the master’ and’ the servant’ has been embedded centuries ago and still exist today. It is a fear installed within the minds of the wealthiest? Perhaps it may be the thought of them being over through and stripped of their goods and chattels? For one thing I am sure of and that is every person being parent., child, grand parents and so on would like to have a true and equal share of the wealth cake in Australia. All Australians should have an education that equals the most prestigious private schools meaning where the wealthiest send they children
